Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

• Perimeter of trapezium = 104 m
• Length of Non-parallel sides = 18 m and 22m
• Altitude = 16 m
• area of trapezium = 1/2 (sum of parallel sides ) × altitude
• Sum of parallel sides = Perimeter - (sum of non-parallel sides) = 104 m - (18+22)m = 104-40 m = 64 m
• Area of Trapezium = 1/2 × 64× 16 = 512 m^2
• therefore area of trapezium =512 m^2
